N-565 Immigration Services in Ostrander, Ohio
We have been helping Delaware County clients with N-565 preparation since 2014. Walk into our Morse Road office, bring your documents, and leave with a clear understanding of exactly what comes next. Ostrander clients regularly tell us it is the first time the USCIS process felt manageable.
We help Ostrander clients prepare for their N-565 appointment before they visit our Columbus office. Call first and we will explain which documents to bring. Ostrander is part of the diverse immigrant community we serve across Central Ohio. We take time to explain each step in plain language, and we will always tell you when a situation requires an immigration attorney rather than a immigration services provider.
Service is provided at our Columbus office (3185 Morse Rd, Ste 15). We do not operate a separate staffed office in Ostrander.
What Form N-565 is for
Used to replace a lost, stolen, or damaged Certificate of Naturalization or Certificate of Citizenship.
Application for Replacement Naturalization/Citizenship Document (N-565) is generally filed by lawful permanent residents and others pursuing U.S. citizenship or citizenship documents. Whether this form fits your situation depends on your specific facts, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official USCIS page before you file.

Fees and official sources
USCIS filing fees change periodically and vary by category, age, and filing method. We do not quote government fees from memory. Always verify the current N-565 filing fee, payment method, and any form-specific fee rules on the official USCIS page before you submit.
Processing times for N-565 vary widely by service center, workload, and case complexity, and they change month to month. Check current estimates with the USCIS processing-times tool and your receipt notice rather than relying on a fixed number. Filing a complete, well-organized packet is the best way to avoid Requests for Evidence that add delay.
USCIS government fees are separate from Asal preparation fees. Verify current fees on USCIS.gov.

Frequently asked questions
How long does N-565 preparation take?+
Most N-565 packets are ready within 24–48 hours after you provide all required documents. Complex cases with many supporting documents may take slightly longer. We give you a realistic timeline at your free consultation. USCIS processing time after you file is separate and depends on the agency's current workload.
Can you help me if I started my N-565 application somewhere else?+
Yes. We often help Ostrander clients who started their N-565 elsewhere and want a second set of eyes before submission. Bring whatever you have completed so far and we will review it, identify any gaps, and complete the packet correctly.
Do I need to come to your Columbus office, or can you help Ostrander clients remotely?+
Most of our work is done in-office at our Morse Road location so we can review original documents in person. Many Ostrander clients find the drive worthwhile because of the thorough document review. Call (380) 269-7408 to discuss your situation before making the trip.
What happens if USCIS sends a Request for Evidence on my N-565?+
If you receive an RFE after submission your N-565, call us at (380) 269-7408. We help build response packets and organize the additional documents USCIS is requesting. Note that legal strategy for complex RFEs may require a licensed immigration attorney.
